Dear fellow Hanoverians:

Apply now for community arts, humanities and science grants through the
Hanover Cultural Council!
Proposals for arts, humanities, and science programs are due October 16

Have you ever wondered what happens with the funds raised at Hanover Day?
Money from our annual celebration, plus Hanover’s share of state cultural
funds, is used to support arts, science, and humanities projects throughout
the year.

Between September 1 and October 16, 2024, the Hanover Cultural Council will
accept applications from organizations, schools, and individuals for grants
to fund cultural activities in Hanover. These grants can support a variety
of arts, science, and humanities projects, including exhibits, festivals,
field trips, short-term artist residencies or performances in schools,
workshops, and lectures.

This year’s allocation to Hanover from the Massachusetts Cultural Council
(MCC) is $8,400, and additional funds are available thanks to the past
success of Hanover Day. The Council will meet later this fall to review the
applications and award the grants.

Past events have included the Summer Concert Series by the Parks and
Recreation Department, the Drama Club programs at South Shore Vo-Tech,
funding for the Hanover Performing Arts Company, painting workshops, Museum
of Science Outreach program at Cedar Elementary School, several museum
passes and children’s programs at the John Curtis Free Library, and
sponsorships of programs for the Walnut Hill Garden Club, South Shore
Natural Science Center, Hanover senior center, and many others.

The Hanover Cultural Council is part of a network of 329 Local Cultural
Councils serving all 351 cities and towns in the Commonwealth. The state
legislature provides an annual appropriation to the MCC, a state agency,
which then allocates funds to each community. Local councils are allowed to
raise additional money through events like Hanover Day.

Applications and more information about the program are available online at

.

For more information, contact Chris Haraden, Hanover Cultural Council
Chair, at (781) 254-3131, or charaden@comcast.net.

Dear fellow Hanoverians:

I have fielded a couple of questions at work regarding mosquito-borne
diseases and the related risk in Hanover. The good news is that the risk
for West Nile Virus (WNV) is currently “low”, and the risk for Eastern
Equine Encephalitis (EEE) is currently “remote” in Hanover. Nevertheless,
the risk does change over time, and it can’t hurt to take precautions and
learn more about what you can do to reduce your risk going forward this
fall and before we have a hard frost.

Thanks to Steve Ryerson for assembling the following information!

Recommendations for Prevention:

• Plymouth County Mosquito Control Project
The Plymouth County Mosquito Control Project accepts requests for adult
mosquito control from Hanover residents. Residents can call up to eight
times per season to be sprayed, barring any spray restrictions in the area.
The spray used will kill the mosquitoes in the area at the time of
spraying. Residents must call, fax, or mail us each time they have a
mosquito problem.
Hours: 7:00 a.m. to 2:30 p.m.
Office Phone: 781-585-5450
Fax: 781-582-1276
Pesticide applications are made via an ultra-low-volume sprayer on the back
of a pickup truck. Typically, spraying is done from the street and can
travel up to 300 feet. Weather permitting, the sprayers operate from 2:00
a.m. to a half hour before sunrise each weekday. When I was at Town Hall
on Tuesday at 4:30 a.m., the spray truck was driving through the back
parking area! Additional information may be found on the Plymouth County
Mosquito Control Project website, found here:
http://atotw.com/maillist/lt.php?tid=J1mDMRRmSDGuE3li5WJDkKMvHKhcUIEIg/lyvkh2065oqLt7nDNYRqoN783ZLADJ
.

• Apply mosquito repellent with an EPA-registered ingredient.
• Wear clothing to reduce exposed skin when weather permits.
• Eliminate standing water to prevent mosquito breeding.
• Ensure your window screens are intact to prevent mosquitoes from
entering your home.
• Be mindful of peak mosquito activity at dusk and dawn.

Dear fellow Hanoverians:

Attached please find the “unofficial results” of the September 3rd
State Primary for the Town of Hanover. Please note that these results do
not include hand counted ballots or write-in votes. Additionally, because
we only had 149 ballots come in between our Advanced Processing sessions
the week of August 26th – 30th, we did not run a Central Tabulation area
on Election Day, so you will see “zeros” in that column. Those ballots
were run through the regular precincts on Election Day.

Please join me in thanking the election workers of the Town of Hanover for
their diligent, painstaking, and yeoman’s efforts over the past two+
months to bring these results to fruition. Election administration has
changed considerably during the 11 years I have been in office, and with
each challenge or change to the law, Hanover’s election workers have
stepped up to the plate and have been equal to the task. They are amazing,
and we are very fortunate.

Similarly, I am grateful for the on-going cooperation of the School
Department, Department of Public Works, Police Department, Fire Department,
Town Hall staff, IT Department, Library and Community Services staff.

Feel free to share this information far and wide.
